Old and New...

While my trusty Magic Bullet is still in perfect working order - after I saw the demo of the Vita-mix about 6 months ago, I've spent about as long trying to decide if I could justify buying this... as you can see I finally did.

The instructions said to wash it with half a jug of warm water and 2 drops of washing up liquid... I really should have paid attention to the '2 drops' I may have put a wee bit too much in - there was a bit of a soapy bubbly overflow....

Made an amazing smoothie after I got rid of all the bubbles - next challenge is ice cream...
